For my friend Greg McCary, Get well soon... For love or Money

[Tyson L. Sparks]

From my Olympus E510 and my old E500 tel kit lens. A neighboring township had their hands full for a few minutes. Times like these are so important, a few more minutes of burn time and the house would have been on fire too.

Go right for sirens and lights guys, we use them as a tool not for fun.

The resizing caused a little digital noise, it looks better full size.

Great shot, Tyson.

what caused the fire?

[Tyson L. Sparks]

We didn't get a cause on this one yet. Probably and electrical issue. Ford is known for them.

I did do some coloring in photoshop on this.

Here is a picture early on.

That first shot is truly exceptional. You should try selling that somewhere.

Very cool. Reminds me of a similar incident that happened to my car...Luckily it wasn't this bad.
But once again, I like the first quite a bit. The action caught is just awesome to look at.

a friends Escort did the whole flaming thing in the parking lot @ work
glad I didn't park too close

You captured the moment nicely.

[Juanjo Viagran]

really nice shot..
but I feel back for the trucks owner, it would hurt me a lot if that happen to my truck, but hey... I have a Chevy..;)

[gahspidy]

Nice work, Tyson. Both images.

[Tyson L. Sparks]

Thank you for all of the comments guys. I am usually the one on the end of the hose. This time I just happen to be passing by when a neighboring fire dept. was dispatched.

the right place, the right time.

Wow, incredible shots. Not good PR for Ford though. I have never heard of them having electrical problems that caused fires but I guess you would know better than I. Maybe they'll go buy a new 150 now and boost the economy a bit.
